    A twitchfest that relies on lightning reflexes and good ol' ninja skill, not the patience to sit through poorly acted cut scenes. That's a compliment, by the way.

    The characters themselves are very cool and there are few games you can pick up for the DC that offer better arcade-style action.

    It won't keep you entertained forever, but if you can get around its lack of length, Cannon Spike delivers.

    But if you move through the settings from easy to normal to hard to very hard, you've got a challenging shooter that is as graphically appealing and fun as any out there--except, of course, for "Radiant Silvergun."

    A hybrid of a game that, whilst doing nothing outstandingly original, is still enjoyable, especially when joined by a fellow human player.

    The final problem that really kills the title is its length and lack of replay value. There are only 10 stages plus the final boss which only take you about 40 minutes to plow through.

    Duracion: 6 horas

    Un juego arcade muy entretenido con una variedad bastante poca de personajes lo unico malo que me parecio del juego es    Duracion: 6 horas

    Un juego arcade muy entretenido con una variedad bastante poca de personajes lo unico malo que me parecio del juego es que solo son 10 niveles en todos los personajes iguales con la unica diferencia que comienzan salteados por lo demas esta muy bien echo su estetica estilo arcade me ha encantado, los personajes son variados de los distintos juegos capcom como Street fighter, Darkstalker, Mega man etc.. el juego consiste en que cada nivel el jugador debe eliminar hordas de enemigos y un sub jefe en cada nivel volviendolo todo un reto, para mi uno de los mejores arcade de la consola y lo recomendaria comprar a un valor de maximo 10 dolares como mucho, si eres de repetir partidas en distintas dificultades este es tu juego :D los graficos y la banda sonora son excelentes dandole muchos puntos a favor, nosotros tenemos ciertos ataques especiales que debemos ir juntando cuando eliminamos enemigos en forma de diamante rojo pero ten cuidado que no son infinitos xd los jefes son muy complejos y mas si esta en dificultad dificil :D gracias por leer    … Expand
